Donations would be greatly appreciated and can be delivered to Casuarina in Bega Street after 8am on Tuesday, April 24. Pick up can be arranged by telephoning Helen Slater on 6492 0627 or 0427 339 064.
Pambula, Merimbula and Tura Beach residents can also help out by delivering to Tura Beach Nursery before 9am on April 24 and the auxiliary will arrange to collect from there.
Help is needed to continue this tradition throughout the shire. As well as Bega, wreaths are being made for Tathra, Candelo, Bemboka, Wolumla, Pambula and also for Narooma.
Ninety wreaths takes a lot of flowers and greenery so the auxiliary needs the support of the district's gardeners.
